You used to say that I was specialEverything was rightBut now you think I'm wearing too much make-upThat my dress is too tightYou got no reasons to be jealousI've never been untrueSo does it really matter if they're lookingI'm only looking at youYou should never try to change meI can be nobody elseAnd I like the way I am

Chorus:What you see is what you getThis is me, hey youIf you want me, don't forgetYou should take me as I am'Cause I can promise youBaby, what you see is what you get

I know you watch me when I'm dancin'When I party with me friendsI can feel your eyes on my back, babyI can't have no chains around me, baby can't you seeI caould be anything you dream of, but I gotta feel freeYou should bever try to change meI can be nobody elseAnd I like the way I am

Chorus:What you see is what you getThis is me, hey youIf you want me, don't forgetYou should take me as I am'Cause I can promise youBaby, what you see is what you get

You should bever try to change meI can be nobody elseBelieve me, you'll be looking for trouble if you hurt meI can promise you, you'll be looking for troubleBelieve me, yeah yeah yeah yeah

Chorus:What you see is what you getThis is me, hey youIf you want me, don't forgetYou should take me as I am'Cause I can promise youBaby, what you see is what you get
